The Grape
Expectations staff is proud to open up two excellent European ales
this Saturday, May 10th for your drinking pleasure. Both are
big sellers here, but for those that haven't had a chance to try them yet,
now's your chance!
The first
beer we will be tasting is Tetley's English Ale-
An export
strength beer brewed specifically for countries outside the UK. It has the same
smooth and creamy characteristics as Tetley's Smoothflow and incorporates a
full drinking flavour. It is well balanced with a complex range of malty and
hoppy notes, enhanced by a fruity aroma. Like Tetley's Smoothflow, it is served
at 8°C to
give extra refreshment.
Tetley's
English Ale has won the American Tasting Institutes prestigious 2000 Gold Medal
Taste Award in the Pub Draught Ale category. This award represents
international recognition of Tetley's impressing beer drinkers worldwide and is
testimony to Tetley's belief that quality pays'. Tetley's won the award ahead
of all other major international pub draught ale brands.
Next up, McEwan's
Scotch Ale straight from Scotland-
Taste and
Appearance: McEwan's Scotch Ale uses twice as much raw materials as most other
well-known ales to achieve its distinctive barley malt aroma and smooth
aftertaste. With its tawny, reddish-brown color, McEwan's Scotch makes no
attempt to disguise its robust fortitude.
Style:
Scotch Ale
ABV: 8.0%
Established: 1856
Brewery: Fountainbridge Brewery, Edinburgh, Scotland
The above
ales will be 10% off per 6-pack or four-pack during the tasting hours of
12-4PM, this Saturday, May 10th. These are exceptional beers and you
shouldn't pass them up! You won't have many chances to try these for
free!
We
also just received the Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA available for the first time
in 6-packs! This is a special order item for now, so come and get
some while you can!
Hope to see
you Saturday!
Sincerely,
The
Grape Expectations Staff
